Joe's Guru Guide To Gaming

Hey everyone!

2011-12-15T22:56:00.000-08:00

New minecraft videos coming out! I'll be doing a series of Let's Plays for adventure maps, followed by a weekly candidate video. I'll also be doing a lot of indie game reviews as they come out and hopefully I can get my videos monetized to be rewarded for my hard work!

Cheers!

Getting My power supply tomorrow!

2011-12-07T09:36:00.000-08:00

wooooooooooooooooO!

El dia has come, mi ninos. I'm going to go on a skyrim playthrough binge when I plug in my new psu!

Back from a long trip!

2011-11-25T20:41:00.000-08:00

Hey guys, random viewers, and people of all over the web! I'm back from a long break. My computer went poop, and as such, I've been unable to comment on any games, news, etc., But I'm proud to say that I now carry a new ATI Radeon HD6770 and I'm crossfiring it with my old 5770. I'm also getting a new power supply next week, and I unlocked the fourth coreb on my AMD Athlon X3! So I'll be slowly updating this website beginning on this date, including with news for upcoming games, and my personal opinions on such.

So It's been hard to keep this blog updated.

2011-08-26T11:11:00.000-07:00

To everyone who's watching this blog, I apologize. It's been extremely hard to keep it updated, but I promise that things will change. I'm just troubled by the fact that I'm running low on money and I need a job so I can pay my bills. :( I'll try to get new videos in, but with my limited time and resources, and the fact that my video editing software is broken, I've got my hands tied at the moment. I'll post again as soon as the new video is out.

For now, check out http://www.youtube.com/user/Jellygamers for our multiplayer let's play videos, and minecraftia adventuring.

Minecraft Let's Play

2011-08-21T18:28:00.000-07:00

Hey you guys. I'm gonna be doing cool Minecraft Let's play series with my friend Gripyweeds. We're going to be experiencing Minecraft in plain ol' vanilla fashions :) If you guys wanna join, send me a message, and I'll be sure to give you our ip. Oh, and keep in mind that we'll be using FRAPS video editor and a 32x32 Texture pack. Joe. OUT.

Grr....

2011-08-21T09:12:00.000-07:00

So we've been having some computer issues. I'm trying to get Medal Of Honor Gameplay up, but my fraps recorder is being a royal pain in the ass and crashing randomly. I believe I'm going to be switching to camtasia in a few days, so I'll keep whoever is bothered to be looking at this blog posted. That also means you, Samantha.

A brief introduction. (Towards anyone who may or may not care.)

2011-08-20T15:17:00.000-07:00

Hello, friends, gentlemen, ladies, and assorted pieces of bacon. This is a blog much like any other that you've seen in this huge place that we've come to call our homes. In this internet, you may or may not notice this blog, but like a silent hero, like a background protagonist, it will be kept faithfully updated, faithfully served, and most importantly, active. I hope to accompany you guys on this wonderful trip through the vast world of technology, and help you through whatever questions, whatever problems you may have. Whether you're looking for tech advice, or if you're simply seeking someone to chat or game with, I'll be here, the faithful little blogger, blogging my arse off.

Now, onto less epic words. This is a guide by yours truly, that will provide gaming reviews, hardware and software alike, so that you, friendly neighborhood blog watcher, doesn't have to sift through pages of reviews here to find someone you can trust. I'll be reviewing what I can, because unfortunately, I'm flat broke, but If you'd like to leave an investment, feel free to do so :) Only joking. If you really love me that much as to send me a donation, I will write you thank you letter. Oh well. Our first review will be that of the gameplay experience I had with Medal of Honor. I will also be including video. Joe, OUT.
